20th January 2013 was a star studded event at the 58th Filmfare awards held at YRF studios in Mumbai. As celebrities walked the red carpet, there were the best dressed and worst dressed moments at this year's Filmfare awards.

Black was certainly back at this fashionable awards night as the men chose to play it safe with this colour. Ranbir Kapoor, Ranveer Singh, Manoj Bajpayee, Arjun Kapoor, Sahil Sangha, Ali Zafar, Ramesh Sippy, Boney Kapoor, Anu Malik, Siddharth Malhotra, Marc Robinson, Bhushan Kumar and Siddharth Roy Kapur are a few names who made black look anything but boring.

Karan ohar chose to do it a bit differently as he looked smart in a black and white suit. Complimenting the look was Jackky Bhagnani who chose to move away from being fully dressed in black. Anurag Basu kept it simple and traditional with his Indian attire, dressed in a blue kurta, off white jacket and stole. He could have dressed better for this one considering it was important night for the Barfi! director.

Like the men, Parineeti too chose to play it safe in a simple, boring black sleeveless dress. Chairwoman of the Miss World Organization Julia Morley looked resplendent in high black trousers and sequin black jacket. She entered with Marc Robinson and the Miss World 2012 title winner. Ileana D'Cruz who won the best female debut award for Barfi! dressed to kill in a Cavalli. Priyanka Chopra carried her sea-blue Armani gown perfectly. Thumbs up for this one. Anushka Sharma who walked away with the best supporting female actress award for Jab Tak Hain Jaan looked anorexic in her long flowing yellow gown. Some weight might have added to the dress' charm.

Sridevi looked delicate in a long orange gown that seemed to compliment her figure. But who stole the show was Madhuri Dixit who arrived for the awards function with husband Sriram Nene. Madhuri looked absolutely ravishing in a black Alberto Makali gown.

Pooja Mishra who was also draped in a black dress was heard saying, "I love the black lady, so I am dressed in black". Alia Bhatt got it all right with a Manish Malhotra creation. Simple, traditional yet beautiful! Her Student of the Year co-star Varun Dhawan clearly stood out from the crowd as he looked dapper in an Archana Walvekar creation. The maroon coloured jacket added the spark to his personality.

Huma Qureshi wore a blue Varun Behl creation that somehow missed the mark. Vidya Balan aka Mrs. Siddharth Roy Kapur stuck to her favourite designer Sabyasachi Mukherjee with a cheqeured saree with just a hint of colour. Rekha was amongst the show stealers with her traditional south Indian saree. Age just does not catch up with her! Yami Gautam looked delectable in a Tarun Tahiliani designed lehenga corset dress.

The disasters of the night included Amrita Rao who seemed to suffer from a Victorian hangover in a white jacket and long flowing purple skirt!Femina Miss India World 2012 Vanya Mishra missed the point at this event with a simple one shoulder black dress and gold motifs. Her LBD failed to create the magic.

This year, only a few celebrities seemed to make it to the list of best dressed. Maybe next year will be more hopeful.

Hollywood star Angelina Jolie feels discrimination and impunity cannot be justified in any way, and says she hopes people in the US can come together to "address the deep structural wrongs in our society".

The Oscar-winning star, who turned 45 on Thursday, also donated $200,000 to the NAACP Legal Defense Fund, reports people.com.

"Rights don't belong to any one group to give to another. Discrimination and impunity cannot be tolerated, explained away or justified. I hope we can come together as Americans to address the deep structural wrongs in our society," Jolie said.

"I stand with the NAACP Legal Defense Fund in their fight for racial equality, social justice, and their call for urgent legislative reform," she added.

Meanwhile, the actress celebrated her birthday amid lockdown with her six children -- Maddox, 18, Pax, 16, Zahara, 15, Shiloh, 14, and 11-year-old twins Knox and Vivienne.

The actress and activist has been active since the COVID-19 pandemic spread around the world and has donated to different organisations.

Jolie previously donated $1 million to No Kid Hungry, the organisation working to feed children during the COVID-19 pandemic.

"I knew that there were problems in America, that there was poverty, but I could not believe when I realised how many school children in America were dependent on a meal to not go hungry. I was so disgusted that we have gotten to this point as a country and that we would let the most vulnerable be in such a state. I can't imagine what it feels like for those parents," she said while opening up about her reason to get associated with the organisation.

New Delhi, Jun 2: After Amitabh Bachchan, it is actor Akshay Kumar, who has come forward to support Bhumi Pednekar's initiative -- Climate Warrior -- urging the people to plant trees.

Bhumi Pednekar has sought to bring Bollywood together to spread awareness about mother nature through her campaign in view of the coming World Environment Day (June 5).

The campaign endeavours to get leaders from the entertainment industry to tell what is the 'one wish they have for the earth.'

Following the thread, the 'Kesari' actor was seen raising his voice on issues, and have taken steps to bring awareness to important causes like climate change.

"Our Beautiful Planet that has sustained us now needs us to protect it more than ever. During this time we as a community must tread carefully and act immediately" Akshay Kumar was seen saying in a video posted by Pednekar on Instagram.

"A lot of damage has been done and climate change is a grave reality that all of us are facing," he added.

Explaining his one wish to rebuild mother nature, is, as he says: "The simplest act of planting trees."

"I consider this as one of the most basic and efficient deeds that we can exercise individually and also urge others to do so. Let us do our bit to heal and rebuild the only planet we have. So join me and become a Climate Warrior," the 'Padman' actor concluded.

Ahead of the World Environment Day, and in support of Bhumi's initiative, legendary actor Amitabh Bachchan earlier in the day also pledged to be 'climate-conscious' in a bid to protect nature.

Mumbai, Aug 2: None of the sim cards that actor Sushant Singh Rajput was using was registered under his name, said the team of Bihar Police, probing his death case, on Sunday.

The team also informed that one of the sim cards that the late actor was using was registered the name of his friend Siddharth Pithani.

"We are now tracking the call detail records (CDRs)," the police said.

The team also said that they will interrogate the family of Sushant Singh Rajput's former manager Disha Salian, who died few days before Sushant's death.

"Even after constant attempts to connect with them on phone, we have failed to establish any contact," it said.

Earlier today, while talking to news agency, the Director-General of Police (DGP) of Bihar Gupteshwar Pandey hinted at the non-cooperation of Mumbai police with his team in their investigation.

"We don't have post-mortem report details, CCTV footage or any information that has been collected by Mumbai Police during probe till now. Our Chief Minister has requested the Maharashtra Chief Minister to ask his police force to cooperate with us," the DGP added.

When asked if Bihar Police want CBI probe into the case, he said, "We are more than capable of doing an unbiased investigation. We hope that Mumbai Police will cooperate with us and we'll conclude the investigation."

Rajput was found dead at his Mumbai residence on June 14. Mumbai Police who was investigating the case had earlier informed that they have recorded the statements of 41 people, including filmmaker Mahesh Bhatt, film critic Rajeev Masand, director-producer Sanjay Leela Bhansali, and filmmaker Aditya Chopra so far.

A team of Bihar Police is in Mumbai to probe the actor's death after an FIR was filed by Rajput's father KK Singh against late actor's girlfriend Rhea Chakraborty in Bihar in connection with the death case under several sections including abetment of suicide.

The Enforcement Directorate (ED) had also registered an Enforcement Case Information Report (ECIR) in Rajput's death case. ED registered the report after an FIR was filed by his father against Chakraborty.
